shirts. >> they have all sorts of new stuff. go to shop.foxnews.com for all of this stuff as we said with skip a minute ago, father's day just around the corner. >> dads love our logo. stay within yourself, see you on radio. >> have a good day. >> bill: it is do or die on thill. the full house voting later today on the debt ceiling and spending bill. both sides doing arm twisting trying to get members of their parties on board or not. will they seal the deal? we'll find out more on that throughout the show here. first they're on the move in iowa. ron desantis revving up his campaign in a state that could, some would argue, make it or break it in 2024. i'll bill hemmer. good morning. hello, partner. >> dana: good morning. we're off to a great start. we're fighting it's purpose.
6:01 am
not fighting fighting. i'm dana perino, this is "america's newsroom." you have to wonder if you can't win the first date can you win the second one and then biden didn't. so politics abounding today. this happens today in iowa. the road to the white house goes straight through that wonderful state and why florida governor ron desantis went there for his campaign kickoff. >> bill: he addressed voters in a church last night. >> the bureaucracy is so en cran muched i think we can bring george washington back and i don't think he could fix it in one single four-year term. we must restore sanity to our nation. we can't have every major institution in our country going on ideological joy rides. we have to be guided by reality, by facts, and by our enduring principles. we in the state of florida held the line when freedom hung in
6:02 am
the balance. >> dana: the hawkeye state turning into a campaign hub for republicans in hope of catapulting to the top of an increasingly crowded field. rich edson reporting live from des moines. what's happening there this morning, rich? >> good morning, dana and bill. you have governor ron desantis campaign is underway. four events across the state throughout the day. kicked things off last evening in west des moines, iowa at the eternity church leaning into his controversial record as governor of florida. his pitch to voters the next president needs two terms. trump would only get one. republicans need to end the culture of losing, another dig at the former president. >> leadership is not about entertainment. it is not about building a brand. it is not about virtue signaling. it is about results. and in florida we didn't lead
6:03 am
with merely words, we followed up on our words with deeds. >> desantis got more direct against trump during a session afterwards with reporters. he responded to trump's criticism about his covid policies noting the former president's family moved to florida when he was governor. we asked desantis whether he could win the evangelical vote from trump which has been very supportive of the former president. >> i think we will. part of it is because, you know, i have a record of just standing for what's right. folks will look to me knowing i don't need someone to give me a list to know what a conservative justice looks like. >> that's a reference to trump using the federalist society to construct a list of potential supreme court nominees. trump is in iowa today and tomorrow. he ripped desantis more than any other republicans in the race. they sparred over the border and covid. he tells fox ron isn't very good
6:04 am
at this. dana and bill, back to you. >> dana: as we get going today. thank you so much. >> bill: want to bring in two reporters on the ground. brianna is a chief politics reporter for the des moines register. eliza collins for the "wall street journal." good morning to you both. let's hear from voices. two people in iowa talking about what's coming their way. >> it doesn't matter if you're 50% of the poll or 1% of the poll. you make the effort to get out and talk personally with iowa voters, you are going to see a result. >> very supporting agriculture and our economy. so i feel in order for them to make a stronger -- target those areas. and do what trump has done in the past. >> bill: there we have it. what has the reception been in iowa for governor desantis?
6:05 am
>> i think iowans have been excited to hear from the governor. he has been teasing a run for quite some time and seen as possibly the best chance to take on donald trump for those who are looking for something new. so there is a lot of energy at his announcement last night. people are looking to see whether he can live up to the hype going forward and whether he can commit to being the best challenger to donald trump. >> dana: he is very much the underdoing in this situation. the poll showing who do people think is the strongest republican candidate against biden? these are registered voters on the republican party. trump 45% and then another republican at 13% and then asking if it came down between trump and desantis who would you choose, trump 56% and desantis at 35%. so can desantis put a dent into trump's considerable lead here this week? >> it's very clear that the
6:06 am
former president has a strong base of support and he has voters who aren't going to vote for anybody else. desantis is clearly sort of second place but his problem now is an increasingly crowded field. there are more and more people getting in every day we are expecting next week former new jersey governor chris christie to get in. former vice president mike pence has been teasing a run. the governor of north dakota is expected to get in and that's on top of a field that includes senator tim scott, former governor nikki haley. so really the field is getting more crowded and that is dividing up the never trump vote. so republicans say they want to avoid what happened in 2016 where trump got basically the most out of a crowded field. but right now the more people divide it up, the harder it is to consolidate behind anybody except the former president. >> bill: you are fighting for oxygen, too. when we listen to that voter a moment ago, the sound bite we
6:07 am
played there, she talked about agriculture and she talked about trade as the two big issues that donald trump appealed to going back to 2016. are those still the two big issues in iowa? or do you hear otherwise? >> i think those are always going to be big issues in iowa. they are looking for someone who can support the agriculture industry in the state, the ethanol industry and donald trump touts that every time he is in the state talks about how much the farmers love him. i think there are a range of other issues they are looking at, too. we mentioned evangelical voters, roe v. wade and abortion will be a big issue here, particularly with that really essential voting block. the economy is big. the effects people are feeling on their pocketbook and issues at the border. we'll see a big range of issues. that is an important one. >> dana: you cover this in depth every day. what are you looking for this
6:08 am
week that would show you that desantis's campaign has a little -- maybe a little or a lot of a lifeline? >> i thought it was really interesting last night when desantis talked to reporters and finally started the take on trump. we've really seen a hesitancy to do that from not just desantis but the others in the field. trump has gone right at desantis. i'm curious how he tries to go directly at the former president and where he sees the contrast on policy. a lot of conversation now about the past, about covid policy, about who did better when they were -- when both trump and desantis were in office. i'm curious about things that really matter going forward. how they would actually govern and what policies would be different there. >> bill: you set the table well. great to have you both on. thank you both. we'll speak again. >> dana: great to have experts on like that. >> bill: the last point she makes about desantis taking on trump on the issues,
6:09 am
interesting. he talked about the wall. desantis mentioned politicians for years and years talking about building the wall. donald trump started that. the wall is 1900 miles long. he made a lot of progress. biden stopped it. and that steel down there lies in piles. we'll see how the former president responds on that. >> dana: "the new york times" do these cool graphics in depth and asked 11 skeptical biden voters how they felt about his re-election. these are the main words that came out. this is stunning. circus, anxious, apprehensive, unforgettable, scary, confused, geriatric and south park episode. >> bill: "new york times" now. if you had to describe joe biden as an annul mall, what would you
6:10 am
put. >> a white democrat teacher and he used the word dinosaur. another used the word hippo. black and democrat and santa, age 22 used the word sloth as in not working. all democrats written up in the "new york times." >> dana: there are politics to get you going. james comer is now launching contempt proceedings against the f.b.i. director christopher wray after he refused to deliver documents that allegedly link then vice president biden to a $5 million bribery scheme. moments ago, comer said there is no reason for this f.b.i. not to cooperate. >> the f.b.i. is saying they don't want to jeopardize their human informants. we know a lot more about this than what i'm going to disclose right now. the f.b.i. needs to comply with our request. and for them to issue a
6:11 am
statement yesterday that was just blatantly false, that lowers my confidence in the f.b.i. even more. this 1023 form is not classified. there is no reason for them not to work with us on this investigation. >> dana: well, we'll see where it goes. a lot of threads to pull. comer is out there trying to make sure they can get some sort of answer. james comey, the former f.b.i. director who used to love the press surfaced yesterday. >> bill: a couple times. >> dana: he has a book out. he is crime novelist and it is called central park west. now you will see him a lot. >> bill: a 1:00 phone call with christopher wray. why they can't talk in person i don't know. they'll talk on the phone at a minimum today. tennessee mother who vanished is now safe and sound. police locating nicki after being spotted on a surveillance video in california. body cam footage shows the moment police arrive to an altercation that took place when she and her boyfriend went on a
6:12 am
road trip and days later vanished. wow, steve harrigan with more. what are police telling you? >> after missing for three weeks, the woman no longer a missing person. she was found in california and has been in contact with police and family members. the 33-year-old mother of two left from central tennessee to drive across country in her jeep with her boyfriend and dog. the trouble started soon, four days in in new mexico off a rest stop. a long haul trucker saw her being violently beaten by her boyfriend being pummeled in the face. he called police and here is some of that body cam footage. >> i seen her on the ground and i seen that dude over there slapping and punching her in the face. so -- >> husband and wife or
6:13 am
boyfriend/girlfriend? you want to press charges? >> no. >> no charges were filed. police separated the two. she went back to him two days later and there was radio silence. her family feared for her life. she was spotted this past weekend at a wal-mart in california selling her phone. police say when they found her she was still with the violent boyfriend tyler straton. he has been arrested for a probation violation. >> bill: shades of gabby petito. thanks live in atlanta. chinese fighter jets seen on video buzzing an american aircraft. where this happened and how the u.s. is now responding. plus this. >> dana: sickening video showing a crowd of teenagers beating off duty marines. the charges the juveniles are

6:20 am
>> dana: after weeks of tough negligent achess the full house is set to vote later tonight on the debt ceiling and spending bill. with the clock ticking, getting it over the finish line is far from certain. where do things stand this morning? aishah hosni live on capitol hill covering the back and forth. hi, aishah. >> good morning. we're just less than 12 hours away from this thing hitting the house floor. democrats and republicans are still whipping. speaker mccarty is media blitz now trying to win over the american people and members of his own caucus. >> the largest savings in american history, the unshackling of finally wasteful washington spending getting rescinded. of all the congresss in the past and the money they rescinded and add them together this is higher than that.
6:21 am
>> at least 150 republican yays, that's what minority leader jeffries expects. there are about 32 republican nos, that list keeps on growing. could we see some of these folks change last second? yes, that's always possible. it all depends on whether mccarthy is willing to make back door deals behind the scenes. the gop expected to lose 30 to 40 votes. the nos think the speaker gave up their leverage and got outsmart evidence by the president to agree to limited spending cuts and caps on defense spending. on the left, we know that aoc is out, although the progressive caucus hasn't made their stance official. we expect that later today. the whipping continues, dana. >> dana: indeed it does. aishah, thank you for following all of that for us. back and forth. >> bill: watch the number of republicans. it could be key in terms of how many stick together. we don't know. we've heard from both sides that
6:22 am
it is likely to pass. but -- >> dana: we'll let you know if it doesn't, how about that? >> bill: we'll be here for that, too. >> dana: either way. >> bill: an exclusive club that very few companies have ever been part of. invidia hit a trillion dollars. there has been a boom in artificial intelligence that puts rock earth fuel into this company. they make chips and they're used in everything. apple, google, amazon, microsoft the only other companies to have topped 1 trillion and invidio was part of that company yesterday. >> dana: beyond dollars and cents big tech execs are sounding an alarm. mitigating the risk of extinction from a.i. should be a global priority such as pandemic
6:23 am
and nuclear war. we have the director of a.i. safety. is that hyperbolic or reasonable on that take, dan? >> so many of us are, in fact, concerned that a.i. in the future, given it's progressing so rapidly could lead to human extinction. there are other risks like making society go a lot more poorly or tearing apart the fabric of society but could lead to extinction. >> bill: here is sam altmann on the hill a few weeks back when he kind of said this. watch. >> regulatory intervention by governments will be critical to mitigate the risks of increasingly powerful models. if the technology goes wrong it can go quite wrong and we want to be vocal about that and want to work with the government to prevent that from happening. >> bill: i have two questions for you. governments not making this,
6:24 am
private companies are. so why pull government into it when the technology companies should hold the responsibility? number two, when they say they'll wipe us out, what does that mean? give us -- are we talking about the computers running nuclear programs around the world, define that. >> sure. i'll answer the second part first. how could it possibly lead to something like extinction? people later on use it maliciously. if they take an a.i. system and say take over the world. somebody tried to do that in the past within the past few months. it didn't work because a.i. systems aren't powerful yet but they could be in a few years' time. another possibility a.i. develop goals of their own. if they are smarter than us that could put us at a -- possible lie lead to extinction. what happened with humans is that we're the smartest and the top of the food chain because
6:25 am
we're most intelligent. not because we have the sharpest claws or biggest teeth. we're the most intelligent. we might pass that mantle to a.i. and they might be the smartest. if they will goals different from ours we could go the way of the gorillas. and for the other part, why not leave it to the tech companies? well, basically they are locked in an a.i. arms race so they are racing to develop extremely powerful a.i. systems as quickly as possible. if they don't, they get out competed. they prioritize the development over its safety and lead them to cut corners on safety. since they are trapped in an a.i. arms race and arms races like nuclear arms races don't go well we need to make sure they aren't caught in the dynamic pressure evidence to build these things quickly. we don't understand these systems and difficult to control them. >> dana: i'm trying to keep up to speed on it as much as i can. i don't understand.
6:26 am
i listened to something yesterday with an expert saying they're optimistic about a.i. and all the things it can provide for us. where do you come down on that? are you a techno optimist or really concerned it could lead to the extinction of the human race? >> i think most of the machine learning community and artificial intelligence community was extremely optimistic about a.i. earlier when it was a lot less powerful. there is generally a sense we ought to race forward to our pre-destined utopia. that's what a lot thought. this is becoming more of a societal scale technology and we need to be more cautious than previously. consequently in the a.i. community top experts shifted over to being much more concerned about the risk of extinction from a.i. >> bill: sam altmann said he wants to work with the government and wants regulatory
6:27 am
intervention. he made the thing. what was he thinking about? >> dana: we appreciate you coming on, dan. >> bill: terrific. thanks for your time today and we'll speak again. thank you. so you got a high-ranking chinese scientists says he can't rule out the covid lab leak theory after all. rand paul here to respond to that coming up in moments. creative way of reducing wildfires got more expensive. how a change in california's labor laws is putting a damper on things. ♪ so, i got this app from experian. it's got everything i need to help my finances. got my fico® score, raised it instantly, i even found new ways to save. all right here. free. and fast. see all you can do with the free experian app. download it now. i suffer with psoriatic arthritis and psoriasis. i was on a journey for a really long time

6:33 am
police say the group repeatedly kicked and punched three off duty marines at a california beach located south of l.a. jeff paul is live in the newsroom there. hi, jeff. >> 12 hours after we told you about this attack the mayor there said five of the nine arrested not only face felony assault charges but booked into juvenile hall one of the biggest factors that led to the arrest, this video taken by witnesses that we should warn again is tough to watch. [shouting] >> the marines who weren't in uniform were able to walk away with minor injuries and didn't want to go to the hospital, which that alone is incredible when you see the video again. three marines were surrounded by dozens of teens after a dispute over the teen's use of fireworks when the marines were stomped on, punched and kicked as they curled up in a defensive
6:34 am
position on the ground. the city's mayor told us it is tragic what happened especially over memorial day weekend but some relief in the arrests. >> i'm really pleased that our sheriff's department investigators worked with the city and the school district were able to get right on this and make sure that taking swift action they were able to hold accountable those involved in this despicable, brutal attack. >> the sheriff's department says of the five teens who face felony assault charges, four are boys, one is a girl. but they say due to the huge crowd that was involved, this investigation isn't wrapped up yet. the city's mayor tells us he hopes this ordeal is a wake-up call for other young people and they should think twice before getting involved in fights. dana. >> dana: jeff paul, thank you. >> bill: now from california a new overtime law may put a damper on a creative way to
6:35 am
reduce wildfires. landowners are hiring goat herders and goats to clear grassy areas that contribute to the blazes, a change in labor laws may make this practice a lot more expensive. william la jeunesse went out to see it for himself oceanside, california. why is the overtime law such a big deal, william? good morning. >> good morning, bill. it is because if this was to go through, they would be paying a goat herder $14,000 a month. that would mean hiring the goats would be too expensive and they would have to go to auction and probably be slaughtered. here is the deal. we're in oceanside. these goats are hired by sdg and e to clear brush under the power lines. they'll go out there later today. this has been going on for years, reagan library, cities, state of california hires goats to clear the brush in
6:36 am
approaching fire season. it is cheaper than manpower, cleaner than machines and less toxic than chemicals. the goats get paid $1 a day in water. no complaints. they show up happy and sober tomorrow. it could stop. it would make goat herders farm workers under the law and entitled to time and a half over eight hours. goat herders, when on the job site are with the goats 24 hours a day. here is the author of that bill, former assembly woman gonzalez now the head of the california federation of labor. >> i think it also has a responsibility to make sure that the workers who are associated with it aren't being abused. they aren't being taken advantage of. that they in fact are being treated fairly. >> so long story is, bill, this
6:37 am
situation is important in california because the goats are used because they can go into these high areas and steep areas and where a bulldozer can't go. much cheaper than other alternatives. this bill is in the legislature and try to stop it. right now labor has a lot of power in sacramento. >> dana: they aren't eating very much. looking -- they haven't started eating yet. >> bill: you look good, william. >> it's important, bill. [laughter] >> bill: nice to see you in california. >> dana reads sports. >> dana: controversial from california goats to another goat michael jordan facing brutal criticism from former teammate scotty pippin appearing on the give me the hot sauce podcast pippin said jordan's early years were marred by selfishness.
6:38 am
>> you guys have seen him play. he was a horrible player. he was horrible to play with. he was all one-on-one. a player that winning wasn't at the top of his category. it was scoring. he was going at the scoring titles. >> dana: jordan and pippin won six championships together with the chicago bulls. pippin has been feuding with jordan for years. reportedly the split stems from how pippin was portrayed in a documentary that jordan helped make. it continues. >> bill: is that the one released at the beginning of covid? i didn't listen to the podcast. i didn't hear it in context. michael jordan was not a horrible player. that's ludicrous to say that. the only reason why the bulls won was because of michael jordan and their fifth man who was, who was? >> dana: i don't know. >> bill: ron harper. >> dana: i know he is from boston, just kidding. i don't know. couldn't you also say michael
6:39 am
jordan wouldn't have won the championships without scotty pippin? i think you can argue that. >> bill: it is a team game. >> dana: don't ever dis me like that on a podcast. >> bill: you got 50% of the job, i got 50% of the job. we're done now. one of the world's richest men arriving in china. can elon musk talk business with beijing as u.s. tensions continue to rise? wild video of a death defying accident. watch this now and ask yourself how anyone survives this. observing investors choose assets to balance risk and reward. with one element securing portfolios, time after time. gold. agile and liquid. a proven protector. an ever-evolving enabler of bold decisions. an asset more relevant than ever before.

>> bill: got to remember that, right? meanwhile beach goers beware. piles of seaweed on florida's coast may contain a flesh-eating bacteria. not good as summer season kicks off. dr. marc siegel is here on that. good morning and nice to see you. we can show a map of where it is in the state of florida. it is called sargasm on the gulf coast? >> correct. that's what it is. it is drifting ashore. a stinky stuff with macroalgae in it. one of the concerns now, bill, is it's been contaminated with plastics. we know that bacteria that you mentioned grows on plastics and can cause food-born illnesses if you manage to ingest it. 80,000 cases a year. it can make wounds worse if you scratch yourself, you can get flesh eating -- also called flesh eating bacteria and can
6:47 am
cause toxic wounds that can get you very sick in the icu and even kill you. two more things on this, by the way. it is a called a triple threat. it also degenerates into hydrogen sulfite gas and ammonia and it can irritate your skin and get into your lungs. you can have an allergy and there is sea lice in it. try to avoid it. >> bill: should people stay out of the water or only certain people? >> i wouldn't say stay out of the water at all. i'm more concerned about when you see it washing up on the shore. that's where you have to be watching it. your kids should not be playing in this stuff because of the bacteria. they shouldn't be inhaling it or eating it. watch it for it on the shore. it likes deep water. we're seeing more of it washing ashore. i don't think you have to worry about it in the water itself. >> bill: i want to talk about another story out of australia.
6:48 am
a 13-year-old girl died from what is called chroming. now the national retail association describes it as this. the act of sniffing chrome-based paint or deodorant can as a means to get high. have you heard of this? and what did you learn about it, doctor? >> bill, this is tough. it goes all the way back to when we were kids. you recall sniffing glue or something people did. this has now transformed itself into something cold hopping and made it over tiktok and one of the problems i have with social media and the impact it has. it catches on. inhaling paints and solvents in order to get a high. oil-based paints. the problem is stuff like acetone in there, formaldehyde is in there. it is called organic compounds for a reason. it can get into your lungs and have seizures and coma and again
6:49 am
we see people die from this. the biggest problem is the long-term cognitive problems. it causes problems with concentration if you use it over time. really dangerous idea to put organically active compounds to sniff them in like that. this is even worse than drugs actually. >> bill: described as a social media trend. aerosol cans, paint, permanent markers, air spray, etc. she was inhaling fumes from a deodorant can and she died because of it, age 13. thank you for bringing it to our attention. nice to see you. >> by the way, dana, is michael jordan your scotty pippin? >> bill: you nailed it. suck up. thank you, marc, thanks, doc, nice to see you. >> dana: all right. can manhattan -- new york's
